Description
Description   Intermediate duration acute psychiatric care (ICC) is an extended period of intensive rehabilitation provided to an individual with a documented psychiatric diagnosis who exhibits acute psychiatric symptoms that require ongoing treatment/evaluation delivered in a hospital setting by a specialized multi-disciplinary team focused on clinical stabilization, psychiatric rehabilitation, skill development, and continuous observation during an average length of stay of 30-45 days. These individuals will then return to a community setting. Individuals are usually inpatient at a community hospital and it is determined they need a longer length of stay. Referrals are typically made by the LMHA in conjunction with the treatment team at the community hospital.
